Quick retouch on myself - I tattooed this knife while I was learning in (Oregon) tattoo school and overworked it, causing the black fill to scab and fall out. Easy fix at least!

Mapping out my colors quick & sloppy before I do it up for real

Literally a publication for eight-year olds 40 years ago

“In the woods where snow is thick, bars of sunlight lay like pale fire.” (Catherine Mansfield) 🎨 Eyvind Earle #wintersky

Don't forget folks: allowing yourself a vision of the future you'd want for our country and planet - not the one you'd settle for, not the one you fear, but the future of your dreams - isn't naive, it's a vital cognitive skill. That's how we articulate what we most value. What's worth fighting for.

There’s a very thin majority in the House too! Even calling a GOP rep would help!

phone anxiety people I see you — it’s the weekend, it’s after office hours, you’ll prob get a voicemail. You can make the call!

My whole life, advocating war has been fed to me as “the adult position,” akin to drinking your coffee black or reading the business section of the newspaper. Let’s be very clear — war is the childish nonsense of impulsive destructive idiots playing baby-brained video games with real human lives.

I'm seeing a lot of posts to call your reps but little on actually how. 5calls.org is a great site where you can put in your zip code and get numbers for your house representative and two senators. You also can get a script if you're like me and stumble over your thoughts.

a WIP since this drawing/future risograph is taking me fuckin forever

You can find your US reps and senators here: reps.fyi If you call now, you'll get an answering machine and you can leave a message. A great thing to do if you're nervous about talking to someone. Just give your name, your zip code, and demand they impeach Trump for illegally invading Venezuela.

Social media is going great, in order to make a living, we’re forced to make our own free commercials for the things we’re making until the most of what we’re making is the commercials.

A #PudgyHorse tribute to the Lascaux cave paintings, painted with the Strata Trio watercolours made by @thoughtsupnorth.bsky.social from Cretaceous rocks from the Albertan badlands. From 2020. Might as well post this one as it's been stolen and sold on Australian Temu. 🙃 #ArtAdventCalendar

Year of the horse

Hi, I’m a little old man in a sedan who didn’t see you there and then drove away

it’s all i’ve got

Clarence Alphonse Gagnon (Canadian, 1881-1942). Eutrope Gagnon Visits (1928-1933). A thread of wintry Gagnon paintings.

I hope 2026 is kind to us all

I invented a new phone to help save time in the morning

Mark Molchan finished that Elric/Red Sonja painting, and oh my god. If you aren’t following @markmolchan.bsky.social yet, you should!

Goodbye December ❄️ Wishing everyone a beautiful ending to the last day of the year tomorrow and a beautiful start to a new one!!

I’m pretty sure I pissed off labubu apologists when I suggest people support small artists instead. I bet no one is buying a labubu because they’re just a fan of Kasing Lung and I stand by that

they gave me a stocking stuffer of dehydrated soup mix that has powdered chicken in the ingredients lol ok 2026 is the year i become extremely cunty about eating animals i guess

snowshoeing kinda day

Quick PSA: do NOT send your tattoo artist AI slop for reference. If you can prompt the robot you can prompt me

My MIL revealed she’s been putting lard in her chocolate chip cookies for years without telling my vegetarian ass and it would feel like the completion of her supervillain arc if she wasn’t so sweet and just slightly oblivious about it

Found this on the AO3 subreddit, and I'm about to let it change my whole life (or at least work really hard to internalize it wrt my writing).

My gift to Pippin was a trip to play in the snow :o)

The real winner this Christmas is my silly little cat who gets to play with balls of wrapping paper for the first time in her life

Super cute snail

I witnessed another artist in the shop fully finish a giant tummy tattoo before both he and the client realized it was misspelled and I almost passed out from secondhand embarrassment

(cw trypophobia?) Cancel all your plans & tattoo a cool rock on your husband

PSA: you should be checking your skin for gnomes once a month. Contact your doctor if you notice any changes in their behavior (gardening, tinkering, etc)

Used Pippin as a little life drawing model with folks yesterday and he did a surprisingly great job by just falling asleep and occasionally changing poses during his nap

Nothing brings people together like your local James Beard award-winning pastry shop abruptly announcing they’re closing in 1 week (I say after spending 90 minutes waiting for 1 croissant and a box of holiday chocolates for my in laws)

"I don't know you anymore"

penciling Fairmeadow today :)c

cat stuff

I started this a while ago but never finished / shared because i thought it was boring and needed a subject, but hey if it's just gonna be a cute lil PNW-coded postcard so be it. What would YOU add to this landscape!?

Watched “Wake Up Dead Man” and found myself distracted by how very badly that guy needed a lawyer

I ran to my local post office on foot to drop off a package today and it made me feel like a little guy on a quest

In every single case where someone has said to me "what do you mean Ocean Ramsey isn't a science educator? She's the one who taught me ____," the thing that they've supposedly learned from her is obviously and unequivocally factually incorrect. Every single time.

I walk tall, without shame. I am uncool and proud.

Using gen ai for text and asset placeholders is not solving a problem; games have been made for decades with regular placeholders. studios using AI this way are just testing the water to see what more they can get away with - which will inevitably mean laying off skilled workers, to make worse games
